Apple has done this many times before. Over even more frivolous patents (i.e. a glossy black rectangle)

They made their bed, now they have to lie in it

Can they build factories to brake too?

I use foam for vscode. Works great, is codium compatible, and is open source

Search input elements still don’t have a native “clear” button

JFC that’s been a thing in webkit for nearly 2 decades

Throw them into the ocean, same as all car batteries

Subaru Solana or whatever it’s called. I bought an ascent earlier this year, but it basically came down to splitting hairs when I went with it over the Solana. Absolute blast to test drive that thing, and I’d love to take it down to Moab or similar places.

Probably going to wind up leasing one next year, so I don’t have to worry about battery decline down the road

Not if they have a way to strip watermarks too, as has happened with every other system like this

In some places they are.

In Utah, for example, there’s a system called Utopia. They ran fiber all over the place, to the home in most locations. The fiber itself is an Ethernet network owned by Utopia. ISPs then just provide service over said Ethernet network. You can have multiple ISPs at the same time, and they don’t actually own the last-mile, or much else

If you can’t list em, you shouldn’t be able to charge for em

After switching to Pulumi, I don’t ever want to use terraform again

LMAO proving the point

I use OSMAnd whenever I can

Sounds like they made a bad investment choice.

Google can already do that. It’s called “safe browsing” and if your site ever gets on the wrong side of it good luck. It’s easier to get off a spamhaus registry than it

Its open-source, so it wouldn’t be impossible to add images. Probably pretty trivial actually. Might be a good first PR

Its really buggy. I was trying to port some old Quake maps, and on the 3rd or 4th time a bug wiped an hour of progress out, I just said “eh fuck it”

It wasn’t great, but it did do somethings right, that Infinite doesn’t. Everything in Halo 5 could be earned in-game, without spending real money (barring a few announcer voices). There was even a bit of logic and a game to it; you worked through bronze, then silver, then gold. I didn’t spend a cent past the original purchase price, and after a year I had every unlock.

Infinite? Want that nice piece of armor? Cough up $20. Missed it? Better hope it comes back sometime, otherwise you’re SoL

Halo 5 did so much right later in it’s life. Over 220 weapons made games like fiesta absolutely amazing to play, and the PvE (warzone, warzone firefight) experience gave those of us who don’t want to sweat a fun place to play

Then they threw it all away for infinite. And when they were called out on their crap, instead of fixing it, they added some crap to a side room at their convention and said “everyone is welcome at halofest.” Note that none of the crap they added to said convention had any impact on the game, it was things like a cosplay contest or a Q&A session that suspiciously didn’t ask any hard questions.

Nearly two years after I first played it (was in the beta) and it doesn’t feel improved in meaningful ways

We finally have some of the game types we used to have in every other game, and the new forge is very impressive, but the guns and movement still feels shitty, and the hyperfocus on what a dozen or so competitive players want, at the expense of the rest of the playerbase still feels incredibly tone deaf

I play it when I’m waiting for my friends to get online to play something else
